One Flaw in Women



This was sent by my fabulous sister-in-law Sherri. I'm sure you'll be able to relate to this one. Feel free to sound off at the end or forward to friends and family!

Women have strengths that amaze men.
They bear hardships and they carry burdens,
but they hold happiness, love and joy.
They smile when they want to scream.
They sing when they want to cry.
They cry when they are happy
and laugh when they are nervous.
They fight for what they believe in.
They stand up to injustice.
They don't take "no" for an answer
when they believe there is a better solution.
They go without so their family can have.
They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.
They love unconditionally.
They cry when their children excel
and cheer when their friends get awards.
They are happy when they hear about
a birth or a wedding.
Their hearts break when a friend dies.
They grieve at the loss of a family member,
yet they are strong when they
think there is no strength left.
They know that a hug and a kiss
can heal a broken heart.
Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors.
They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you
to show how much they care about you.
The heart of a woman is what makes the world keep turning.
They bring joy, hope and love.
They have the compassion and ideas.
They give moral support to their
family and friends.
Women have vital things to say
and everything to give.

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,
IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

Travelling with Kids...Recent Discussion in The Juggle

Check out the latest issue that's set off a ton of comments in The Juggle, a great blog written by Wall Street Journal reporter Sarah Schaefer Munoz. If you missed the news about the woman who was thrown off a plane because her baby threw a tantrum that prevented the flight from taking off, then I'm sure you can still relate to being on a flight with your child when they lost it - either because the cabin pressure was piercing their ear drums or they were just plain bored. Well how do you deal with travelling with kids? Do you put off flying until their old enough to control themselves? Take cruises that leave right from your home town? Or, do you drive to your vacation destination just so that you can spare yourself the embarrassment of your child screaming and kicking the seat in front of you? Sound off and let us know. Or read The Juggle and check out the comments by parents who can totally relate.
